Being at the Writing Center yesterday made my group think a lot about our topic. We realized that our topic about storefront business signs written in foreign language is only a tip of the iceberg of what we are trying to explain to our audience. Our topic is not just about these business anymore , it goes deeper than that.
When i talked to one of the instructors at the writing center yesterday he made me really think about my group's topic and we came up with some really interesting arguments about my group's topic. As a group we realized that our topic is about, communication and a lack of fluency in other languages. The instructor asked me a really great question. He said who's fault is it ?
At first I was going to say the business owners,but then I stopped myself and said it is the people and customers reading these signs that they don't understand.
They don't understand because they lack fluency in that specific language. Maybe Americans and others today need to make more of an effort to learn other languages. We then said maybe people who speak other languages think that there language is more superior than other languages and that's why people feel that is not necessary to learn other languages that is not their own. It is really hard to find a title to sum up what our documentary will be about. Does anyone have any ideas please feel free to let me know what you think, thanks.
